county supplies. For several years, it now
appears, nobody has been able to get a
county contract without dividing profits with
the officials. Thus 81, 900 was paid to officials
for one coal contract. Repairs to a steam
heating apparatus amounted to several thou
sand dollars in excess of the first cost Of the
plant To an obscure and ignorant boiler
maker 800, 600 was paid for work which at
honest prices would not have cost more than
$4,000. OF course the boiler maker had to
give up most Of his profits to the horde of
confederates
But the plunderers, audacious as they were.
have not had it all their own way. In States
Attorney Grinnell they have met their
match. When it became necessary to the
cause OF justice the states attorney swooped
down upon that obscure boiler maker and
took him in. This occurred six weeks ago,
and from that day to this the boiler maker.
Mic Schneider by name, has not been seen by
any of his former associates He disappeared
as completely as if swallowed up by All earth

floor of the room in which he was confined,
ravlng and cursing. Then he became calm,
made a full confession, and has since been trav-
cling in the south, living luxuriously at the
expense of the Chicago Citizens association,
which has subscribed literally to the prosecu-
ton. Almost any day now Mic may be placed
upon the stand to confront his accomplices
The prospects are that score or so of public
plunderers will ere long join Joe Mackin in
Joliet prison.
As for Joe himself, that adroit person is
just now working a little scheme on his own
account. Through the indulgence of the prison
officials he has been permitted to send out
from his prison quarters several hundred
presents for his former friends, and for infiu-
entail men in this city and state at Washing
ton. Joe's offerings are in the form of neatly
polished stone paper weights bearing in gilt
the names of the recipients. "That's cute of
joe" l heard a prominent official remark,
gazing upon his new paper weight, land Tm
glad to have him remember me. After all,
Joe isn't such bad fellow, and think he
has been sufficiently punished for being the
tool Of others. I'd sign a petition for his par.
dom" That is just what the willy Joe wants,
and such petition will probably be soon in
circulation. A convict who can thus from
his prison cell work a scheme to win the favor
of senators, congressman, millionaires and
editors, is pretty sleek person.

when the Madison Square theatre was built
he was the first person engaged for the stock

refused their parts in that play, thinking
there was nothing in them. Miss Keene re-

sobriquet Boss of Chicago, and he has well
deserved the title. But let us take a look at
him. We note the peculiar beard growing
down his chin and upon the front part of his
neck-worn that way. It's said, to conceal an
old scar-the restless black eyes, the air OF
confidence. and the hard lines of selfishness
and tyranny. he is an active man, mentally
